DataHour: Contrastive Learning for Image Classification
In this DataHour, Ashok will explain how Contrastive Learning is used for performing image classification. The model is trained to maximize the similarity between the positive examples and minimize the similarity between the negative examples. By doing this, the model learns to capture the important features of the data that are common across different views and that are distinctive between different data points.
